Medical Marijuana Alternative

As I jump through some strange hoops to find relief for my fall allergies/fibro flare-ups, I'm brought face to face with one of the last few things I've yet to try. Marijuana.

My fears? I'm a writer. I don't want to be out of my mind or sluggish, hungry, and kinda dumb. But the migraine's get so bad, I'd take all of that for a few hours of relief.

So here I am, clutching my Medical Marijuana send-off package with my 100.00 pay off check (I feel I should get a discount on) and ready to take the plunge. I'm also going back to my neurologist to see about these strange head twinges I get at night and to try pure oxygen to see if that can break 7 day migraines.

Pain killers simply don't work for me any more, and the side effects have now made it too dangerous for me to continue.

But there's light at the end of this tunnel I think.

Maybe I'll find Marijuana will work or maybe...just maybe the FDA will hurry along this new drug!

Hey, Gin, I just dropped in after eons of not reading any blogs. I would really like to know how the MM trial went. It is legal here in New Mexico,just not for fibro. I've wanted to try it, but I don't want to be buying from some untrustworthy source, let alone get caught at it. Plus, believe it or not, I don't want my kids to think that Mom's lost it completely. LOL One FB friend said it helped her get better sleep. Wouldn't I just love that!Love ya.

To clarify, I am not a doctor or nurse or nutritionist. I'm not selling any products or taking any donations. I simply have Fibro and a lot of knowledge gleaned by lots of research. Fibromyalgia is supposedly going to be with me until the day I die, so that is how long I will fight it.

The only rules of Fibro Fight Club are: No one will talk down to others and no one will rant about how much their life sucks. There are plenty of places to have self-pity moments (and we all get them!) but not here.
